Boy throwing rocks from overpass shot by crossbow | KING5.com Seattle

It's not there any more so:

an Diego police say a boy throwing rocks at vehicles was struck in the abdomen by a crossbow bolt fired by a passenger in small sport utility vehicle.

Officer Dino Delimitros says the boy and a friend were throwing rocks in the Linda Vista neighborhood Monday afternoon when a passenger in a black Toyota RAV4 pulled out a crossbow and fired.

The boy was shot in the abdomen and was taken to a hospital. The San Diego Union-Tribune says his injuries are not life-threatening.

His name and age weren't released.

Nobody has been arrested.

Must be them nasty Tories. This would never happen under New Labour.

It's in San Diego. The boy probably lucky he did not get shot from firearm (which would have been just as illegal as shooting him from crossbow).

I just trawled through the comments, no sympathy from them.

Well, one or two bleedin' heart liberals objected but a surprise rock through their windscreen at 60 mph will soon change their minds. Physically at least.

I can't listen to that but he doesn't look like enough of a "baddy" - find a better one Dave!

Fingertip sun at sideshow stalls, they throw the balls
At coconut fur that hides behind coloured shades that blind your eyes
Every child's mother holds an ice-cream cone, they circle round
Perceived unknown by an eye that peers from a hole in the tent where no one goes
A figure sitting cross-legged on the floor he's clogged and clothed in saffron robes
His beads are all he owns

Slow down, slow down
Someone must have said that slow him down
Slow down, slow down
It's pictured on the arms of the Karma Man

50 cal Browning is a very well designed gun despite age (1921 - how many other proper guns can claim it?) - watch how little recoil there when it is mounted so nicely, perfect for home defence
